reagan when he said that foreign policy was, we win, you lose. i think at this point what's concerning me is in this deal, we lose, they win, and the rest of the world is put in jeopardy. and you made a great statement. not only is israel and iran a threat to israel, i've often heard, why do we worry about iran? that's another country. why do we need to get involved? because it is a direct and immediate threat to the u.s. as well. we have troops within missile range. we have troops that are in international waters, that would be -- could be literally affected by the military force in iran. i think those are issues that we've got to address, as we move forward. it's not something that we can just put in its little corner. iran in some ways is much different than north korea. with their assets and with their capabilities and we can't deny where they are in the world. and i think that's the concern that i have with this administration. that's why we're here tonight talking about this. and i want to discuss some more about this, but i will yield back

foreign policy is the gentlelady from florida, former chairman of the foreign affairs committee, to whom i'd yield now, ms. ileana ros-lehtinen. ms. ros-lehtinen: thank you so much, mr. speaker. i want to thank mr. roskam for his leadership in spear heading this discussion on the dangers of last month's interim nuclear agreement deal with iran. as we've had more time to dissect this deal, it is becoming clearer and clearer that despite secretary kerry's claim that no deal is better than a bad deal, we've been had. in exchange for the one thing that iran so desperately needs, sanctions relief to jump-start its flailing economy, the administration received nothing more than window dressing to stop iran's nuclear program. this interim deal is the unraveling of the sanctions policy that was so painstakingly crafted over the past 10 years. and it was aimed at bringing iran's nuclear program to an end. we've already seen other nations eager to get back into the iranian market, and it will now be nearly impossible to stop the cash infusion into the iranian regime. how can we stop this? this dea
